‘This is F*cking Idiotic’: Dave Portnoy Slams ‘Moron’ JD Vance for Comment About Parents Paying Lower Taxes
X
Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy slammed Donald Trump’s VP nominee JD Vance as a “moron” for proposing tax breaks for families with children.
During a prior interview with Turning Point USA leader Charlie Kirk, Vance advocated for having couples with children pay less taxes in order to promote large families. Vance argued that families who have kids should not have the same tax rate as single individuals or childless couples regardless of income.
“If you’re making a hundred thousand dollars, $400,000 a year and you’ve got three kids, you should pay a different lower tax rate than if you’re making the same amount of money and you don’t have any kids,” Vance noted.
BREAKING: Kamala Harris’ campaign has apparently come out *against* tax breaks for having children while trying to slam JD Vance for his past comments.
Yikes.

More recently, Vance has been criticized for claiming that the Democratic party is ran by “childless cat ladies” such as Vice President Kamala Harris and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY).
Portnoy, who has become advocated and praised Trump’s policies on social media, called out Vance for being a “moron” adding that his tax breaks for families was “fucking idiotic.”
“This is fucking idiotic,” Portnoy wrote on X, formerly Twitter, to his followers. “You want me to pay more taxes to take care of other people’s kids? We sure this dude is a Republican?”
This is fucking idiotic. You want me to pay more taxes to take care of other people’s kids? We sure this dude is a Republican? Sounds like a moron. If you can’t afford a big family don’t have a ton of kids. pic.twitter.com/oPCYMkq3G1

He added, “Sounds like a moron. If you can’t afford a big family don’t have a ton of kids.”
However, the proposed child tax credit that Vance is suggesting has been in place since the 1990s, which has made families without children pay more in taxes for decades.
The child tax credit has been in place since the 1990s — meaning that non-parents have paid more in taxes for decades — everyone on Twitter seems to have forgotten this today. https://t.co/7XPJsD3DoB
